Why Register a .COM Domain Name?

It’s the Original Power Player

When people think “internet,” they think .COM. This is the domain that started it all, and after more than 30 years, it’s still the top choice worldwide. .COM is the gold standard—the most trusted, credible way to end your URL and instantly show you mean business.

Instant Credibility, Right Out of the Gate

With hundreds of new domain extensions out there, who can keep track? (Well, we can, but that’s our job!)

The truth is, most people expect your site to end in .COM — They’ll type it instinctively, whether it’s for a business, blog, or brand. And let’s not forget about those inevitable typos! Securing common misspellings can block cybersquatters and ensure that your visitors always land on your site.

Perfect for…Just About Everything

From Fortune 500 companies to side hustles, from personal portfolios to passion projects—.COM is the ultimate all-rounder. Join the 100 million+ sites that use .COM as their home on the web, and let your website speak volumes.
